July 2nd 1266 saw the Treaty of Perth, where Norway renounced it’s claim on the Hebrides.

The Treaty of Perth brought about peace between Norway and Scotland, settling their respective territorial claims; Scotland gained the Hebrides and the Isle of Man, compensating Norway with a sum of 4,000 marks, together with an annual fee of 100 marks payable in perpetuity, while Norway’s sovereignty over Orkney and Shetland was confirmed.

The Treaty was concluded between the nobles of King Magnus VI of Norway  and King Alexander III of Scotland and signed in Perth. The division of territory had been in dispute for many years, with Kintyre proving a particular problem. However, Magnus’s father Haakon IV had lost the Battle of Largs just three years earlier, giving the Scots the upper hand when the son sued for peace. The route towards a treaty was probably paved by a monk - Reginald of Melrose - while its terms were finalised through negotiations which took place directly with Alexander III in Perth in 1265 and 1266. Magnus’s representatives were Chancellor Askatin and Andres Nikolasson. The treaty was renewed and ratified in Inverness on 29th October 1312.

The Scots were slow to pay up, with the last installment of the 4,000 mark payment not reaching Norway until 1282. It is not known exactly when the annual payments were suspended, but the Norwegians are known to have had difficulties collecting the money owed during the 14th and 15th centuries. The debts were eventually written off as part of the marriage agreement between King James III and Margaret of Denmark in 1468, which ceded Orkney and Shetland the Scottish crown.

The pic shows the seal of Alexander III which without a doubt would have been on the treaty itself.

SpaceTime -- A brief history

SpaceTime is Australia’s most popular and respected astronomy and space science news program – averaging over two million downloads every year. We’re also number five in the United States.  The show reports on the latest stories and discoveries making news in astronomy, space flight, and science.  SpaceTime features weekly interviews with leading Australian scientists about their research.  The show began life in 1995 as ‘StarStuff’ on the Australian Broadcasting Corporation’s (ABC) NewsRadio network.  Award winning investigative reporter Stuart Gary created the program during more than fifteen years as NewsRadio’s evening anchor and Science Editor.  Gary’s always loved science. He studied astronomy at university and was invited to undertake a PHD in astrophysics, but instead focused on his career in journalism and radio broadcasting. Gary’s radio career stretches back some 34 years including 26 at the ABC. He worked as an announcer and music DJ in commercial radio, before becoming a journalist and eventually joining ABC News and Current Affairs. He was part of the team that set up ABC NewsRadio and became one of its first on air presenters. When asked to put his science background to use, Gary developed StarStuff which he wrote, produced and hosted, consistently achieving 9 per cent of the national Australian radio audience based on the ABC’s Nielsen ratings survey figures for the five major Australian metro markets: Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, and Perth. That compares to the ABC’s overall radio listenership of just 5.6 per cent. The StarStuff podcast was published on line by ABC Science -- achieving over 1.3 million downloads annually.  However, after some 20 years, the show finally wrapped up in December 2015 following ABC funding cuts, and a redirection of available finances to increase sports and horse racing coverage.  Rather than continue with the ABC, Gary resigned so that he could keep the show going independently.  StarStuff was rebranded as “SpaceTime”, with the first episode being broadcast in February 2016.  Over the years, SpaceTime has grown, more than doubling its former ABC audience numbers and expanding to include new segments such as the Science Report -- which provides a wrap of general science news, weekly skeptical science features, special reports looking at the latest computer and technology news, and Skywatch – which provides a monthly guide to the night skies. The show is published three times weekly (every Monday, Wednesday and Friday) and available from the United States National Science Foundation on Science Zone Radio, and through both i-heart Radio and Tune-In Radio.

Now an international team of researchers has discovered a new genetic variant in people of African ancestries that appears to restrict HIV replication after an infection sets in. Though more research is needed to confirm their findings, the discovery is a huge step forward for HIV research, which has long neglected African populations. "The findings may explain why certain people in these populations have a lower viral load, which slows down the virus from replicating and transmitting," says pathologist and study author Simon Mallal from Murdoch University in Perth, Australia. The discovery, from a combined analysis of nearly 3,900 individuals, could also pave the way to developing new antiviral drugs as previously identified genetic variants have done in the past.

Thai BL Favourites Tag List Game

Of COURSE @lost-my-sanity1 want me to partake in this and I am doing it for that wee little child only.

Favourite BL

I mean, it was a tight competition between THE 2 - MSP and BB. But as I have screamed out into the void before, BB just takes the cake, man. That show viscerally changed me as a person. I am a NEW BEING after BB. It's the way in which it came during the pandemic with its amazing acting and directing and music and STORY and chemistry and all that and more. MSP is a close second but my uni bois have a special place in my heart.

[p.s I love nanon and his entire face in this scene so much I cannot even descRIBE]

Favourite Pairing

The pretentious me hates how I am following the mainstream and not thinking of some obscure pairings but yeah TinnGun genuinely deserve it. I am sorry but I still get butterflies whenever I watch the last scene of ep 4. That kind of chemistry is super hard to come by and GemFourth did such a good job, I love them. 🥺 I wanna forget ever having watched MSP and watch them all over again.

Some noteworthy mentions are obviously patpran, everything maxtul plays, akkayan, biblebuild, etc.

OH I do infact have a not THAT mainstream pair! It's whatever couple name mark and perth acted as in the [admittedly not a BL] show, The Stranded, on Netflix.

Favourite Character

Tinn. I relate so much to that boy, especially his awkwardness. Also he is super cute and I am super cute. He is also super simpy and I love that in a man. I truly don't know if I want him or want to be him.

[ANOTHER noteworthy mention is Pleum in Ghost Host, Ghost House cuz again, mans is a walking green flag and a simp. ALSO hella awkward. *gasps* I have a type].

Favourite side character

This position is shared by 2 of my fav comic reliefs who are also very pure hearted I love them to bits - Tiwson from MSP and Tankhun from Kinnporsche. The series truly wouldn't have been anything without them and I stand by it.

Favourite Scene

If I could say the entirety of ep 5 of BB, I would have. But if I had to choose. This.

Nothing surpasses this. Paof told them to make it award fucking worthy with the angst and they fucking did it. Ohm in this scene does so many things to me I cannot even I shall be kicked out from society if I ever open my mouth. I can't even stand seeing that gif cuz my knees will buckle down that very second. It also paved the way for the rooftop kiss TM so.

Favourite Line

I mean. I warned you about this in the previous question so. It's more to do with the way he says it but it's still my fav cuz it was done right.

Underrated Actor:

SING who plays the role of the villain in Not Me. It is time that he got some main character roles, gmm.

Most anticipated BL and why:

1. Dangerous Romance cuz I have missed seeing Perth and Chimon, another 2 actors that can ACT, in a main role.

2. Only Friends cuz

3. I feel you linger in the air cuz plot looks interesting and they r both hunks.

Healthiest relationship in a bl:

Tinngun. Aint even have to put up a fight.

Most toxic relationship in a bl:

I mean, there are lots, girlie. If you immediately thought of that one pairing after seeing this question, then yeap I am going with that pairing too wink wink.

Guilty Pleasure Series:

Tonhon Chonlatee and that too only the first few eps. I love khaotung man what do I do.

Bonus! Most underrated series:

I think khun chai is pretty underrated in the sense that it's very telenovelaesque and mayhaps not fully bl so people r put off by it but I LOVED that show to bits.

YYY was a comparatively underrated series too even though I loved the romantic moments as much as the weird and comedic ones. It truly sits in a league of its own.

OOOKIE thassit for now. I have exhausted my typing abilities and I am pretty sure I left a lot of good series and scenes off cuz my brain couldn't conjure them up while I was typing.

I welcome anyone else who wants to try this out honestly, but if @ashedddaisy and @gaylittlepieceofsh1t could contribute their think pieces, I would LOVE to read em.

The Hollywood strikes may have wreaked havoc on the broadcast networks’ fall plans but it also paved the way for a Paramount+ Australia series to snag an unprecedented berth on CBS starting Nov. 14.

The creation of NCIS: Sydney marked the first time one of CBS Studios’ global drama franchises earned an international spinoff. Now, it’s giving CBS the opportunity to have original episodes of an NCIS show before the end of the year. The rest of CBS’ scripted series, including the NCIS mothership and NCIS: Hawaii, aren’t returning until February.

Here, creator Morgan O’Neill talks about the making of NCIS: Sydney, which follow a team of U.S. NCIS Agents and the Australian Federal Police (AFP), who are grafted into a multi-national taskforce to keep naval crimes in check in the most contested patch of ocean on the planet.

DEADLINE The first episode features some pretty impressive scenes of naval ships in the Sydney harbour.

MORGAN O’NEILL One of the really unique things about Sydney is that it’s one of the few big cities in the world with a naval headquarters, which basically controls the entire eastern seaboard of Australia. It’s right in the center of town. It commands the most spectacular views of the Sydney harbour and the Opera House and the harbour bridge. We have a terrific relationship with the Royal Navy, which allowed us access.

Was it a challenge, getting access to those ships?

O’NEILL I mean, you’re negotiating with the pointy end of the armed services. So there’s always a little bit of red tape to push through. But fortunately, we kept finding people who were massive NCIS fans, so they understand that the show has a really broad global reach. They want to be associated with that. It’s fun, it represents them really well. But secondly, there’s no harm in seeing the Australian Navy represented around the world in a really positive manner. So they came on board and they were massively helpful. In the opening episode, we have a Navy Seahawk helicopter flying above Sydney Harbour. That’s real, and it’s one of those things you can’t rent by the day. So either you get someone who has one who wants to play with you, or you just don’t do it. When I spoke to David Stapf at CBS Studios in the very early stages, I said,’ Look, my sense is that we should be swinging for the fences on this.’ And he said, ‘swing away.’ So we did. When we met met with a navy and asked for aircraft carriers, submarines, the entire base and Seahawk helicopters, we expected them to laugh us out of the room. But they just wrote it down and got back to us.

So is is there an NCIS office in Sydney?

O’NEILL There’s actually a few In Australia. There’s one in Perth, one in Darwin and the biggest one is in Sydney.

When you were tasked with adapting this format, did you get a bible of the franchise? Or did you simply watch old episodes?

O’NEILL When I got the green light to start working on this, I basically cleared my calendar for about a month, got on my comfy couch and watched hundreds and hundreds of episodes from all the different franchises to work out what that special sauce was that made the shows so successful. Ordinarily in my job, you’re coming up with stuff from scratch. I had 950 odd episodes to delve into. I realized there’s a shared DNA they have amongst all of the different franchises, which is that it’s actually a family drama. The members of NCIS, irrespective of whether they are in Washington or New Orleans or Hawaii or Los Angeles, it’s really a family drama set at work. It’s a combination of a workplace comedy and a family drama. You need to feel like the characters are bonding, which is not to say that they always get along. Sometimes they do. Hopefully they often do. But bonds will be tested and trust will be broken and repaired, relationships will fracture and they will get back together again. That’s what the show does well. What I also realized was that CBS Studios was very strategic in terms of how they built out that franchise because they never made the same show twice. So L.A. is markedly different to the mothership. New Orleans was markedly different from from Los Angeles and Hawaii is different again. What they were trying to do was make sure they expanded the universe without replicating it. It’s a police procedural with a wink. It’s kind of cheeky, and it has an underdog swagger to it. The location gave it a completely different flavor, iteration to iteration. And once I worked that out, it was really clear that Sydney could be its own very different show because we’re in a different hemisphere. We have different light, we have a very different cultural sensibility. We’re 9,000 miles from anywhere. Hopefully that comes across. For an audience in Australia, for instance, this should feel like an authentic Australian show. And then for an audience from around the world, it should feel like another NCIS expansion of the universe but a very different one.

Can you give an example of a story that wouldn’t work on any other NCIS show? Something that is unique to NCIS: Sydney?

O’NEILL One of the first things that you’ll notice is that it’s a blended family. The other iterations of the show are made up of Americans because they’re all set in America. In order for NCIS to operate in Australia, they have to partner with Australian law enforcement agencies in order to have jurisdiction. As soon as you turn on this show, you realize this is the first blended family in NCIS history where we have Australians and Americans working together. You also see them on day one. All the other iterations of the franchise drop into the show; the organization is already up and running, everyone knows each other and everyone’s working out each other’s foibles. We get to see this organization start from scratch. That offers a huge amount of fun because we’re building a team that doesn’t know one another. We also did a fair amount of anecdotal research in terms of how the world sees Australia. We could debunk a few things. Almost universally when people talk about Australia, particularly if you’ve not been here, the very first thing people say is, ‘how do you live? Everything can kill you.’ And it’s true. We we do have our fair share of things that will bite and nip and eventually put you in the grave. We have 20 of the 25 most deadly snakes in the world in Australia. I mean 80% of all venomous things on the planet live in Australia. We definitely lean into that.

Are the Australian actors you chose recognizable in Australia?

O’NEILL Very recognized. Especially Todd Lasance, who plays Australian Federal Police Sgt. JD Dempsey. He’s an Australian fellow from a little town of Gumly Gumly just outside of Wagga Wagga. I not making it up. I know it sounds like it but I’m not. He’s very recognizable to Australians and he also worked in America. William McInnes, who plays our curmudgeonly forensic pathologist, is one of Australia’s great television actors. He’s been the face of a couple of enormous shows out here. And it’s a very different role for him, which I’m really excited by because usually he’s kind of a warm lead.

There was some talk early on that former NCIS EP Shane Brennan would be involved in this. What happened with that?

O’NEILL Shane obviously has a massive pedigree with NCIS, being deeply involved with the original and then obviously with L.A. for many, many years. His involvement predates me, and I’m not sure how that eventually panned out. He’s a really beloved and a deeply involved member of the franchise internationally, and he’s now the head of our guild out here [in Australia]. He’s been enormously helpful. In terms of the last couple of years of running the guild, he’s injected a whole bunch of really interesting programs, and a lot of his own money to help fund young writing programs. I have huge respect for Shane.

So how did you find out that this would be airing on CBS?

O’NEILL We were actually at a publicity shoot. I think it was the day after we’d wrapped and I was watching everyone get dolled up. One of the executive producers walked in after getting off the phone with America. Execs looked at the first four or five episodes and apparently really flipped for them. Suddenly we were on CBS primetime. I believe we’re the first Australian show ever to do that. We’ve certainly had a conversation around how excited they are by the show. This is a big franchise. A show like NCIS isn’t really in the habit of just doing one season, you know. They want to expand the universe and keep expanding it.
